Carpets

Dagens Nyheter had this article on carpets last weekend. Not surprisingly, my favourite is the second among the photos, the Bakhtiari.

I quite liked this one that Metropol auctioned earlier this week too, a Baluch. I didn't bid for it, but the price confirms my opinion that auctions is where to look at carpets in Stockholm.

A friend showed me some newly purchased antique Afghan flatweaves recently also, beautiful pieces.

PS Update - oooops, forgot to tell you! Metropol has a special carpet-auction in the end of May, but no link yet...
